Medium· Mass-Energy and Nuclear Binding Energy· +4 / −1
A nucleus with mass number 240240 breaks into two fragments each of mass number 120120, the binding energy per nucleon of unfragmented nuclei is 7.6 MeV7.6\ \mathrm{MeV} while that of fragments is 8.5 MeV8.5\ \mathrm{MeV}. The total gain in the Binding Energy in the process is :
